Rage on Xbox 360 to Use Two Disks



ID Software has had to rethink how content is presented in its upcoming title Rage due to restrictions of the Xbox 360's DVD size.

The original idea had been to spread the game across five-to-six wasteland environments, according to lead designer Tim Willits. But DVD restrictions have meant that's been turned into two larger areas; one for each of the two Xbox 360 discs.

"The PC is limitless in the amount of data you can put on it. The PS3 has about 25GB. But the Xbox 360 roughly has 6 to 8 GB of data. We're hoping we can squeeze the game down to two discs for the 360 version."

"I wouldn't say the overall story was changed in any way in order to fit on the Xbox 360 version," Willits said, "but how the player experiences Rage's story has been altered."

Rage is a post apocalyptic first person action game with driving elements, its set to release in late 2009 or possibly even early 2010.
